Labrusca Emilia Lambrusco Rosso
Emilia-Romagna, Italy
Giving this another chance. Dense, dark purple like Ribena in color. Grape juice, yeast and wet cardboard notes in nose. Fizzy fruit seed flavors, but nice seed tannin finish. Moderate skin tannin emerges after an hour. I’ve been pairing dark chocolates with Lambrusco since someone showed me it could be done. Also worth drinking once summer returns. Fresh, light fun

Blind I would have said rose champagne. Nice and very yeasty, but not what I want from a Lambrusco.

Fresh blackberries, blueberry jam, bubble gum, white pepper, slight clove. Compact short fizzy bubbles, light bodied, low acid, fruity slightly herbal finish. Perfect sparkler for the last sunny day in PDX. Addio estate!
